They suspect the murder is tied to someone selling off the university’s pre-Columbian artifacts, but the secrets go much deeper than they realize.

The only hope they’ve got is each other, and they’re going to have to put their past behind them if they’re going to stay alive long enough to uncover all that’s hidden.

What We Hide by Colleen Coble and Rick Acker
Savannah Webster and her husband, Hez, separated out of tragedy. She returned to Tupelo Grove University, only to get caught in a mystery and under suspicion of murder! Hez comes to her rescue.
What a gem! This was a fast paced mystery thriller. I couldn't put it down! I was pleasantly surprised with the seamless co-authorship. There are so many twists and secrets! You will be surprised all the way to the end! 5/5⭐s Excellent book, I look forward to more.

Ok, but…

The overall story was ok, but the relationship portion took up too much bandwidth and was quite annoying. They also weave in a lot of religion, which is not my bag.

Incredible to the last sentence

Very worth the listen. Twisty and just wait…no listening ahead! Narration is good. Story is great!!!

Loved the read!!

I typically love reading anything by Colleen Coble & so this book was not a huge surprise. This was a great suspense book, although the ending left me wanting for more…

Many twists-Christian platform

Truly appreciate the Christian platform. Great story with many twists and turns. Will be looking for future offerings in this series.

Wow!

I loved this story! Lots of twists and surprises. Great narration. If you are wondering if you will like this book, you will.

More twists and turns than a corkscrew and definitely a roller-coaster!

This story kept me guessing right up until the end! A real page-turner! (Or in the case of Audible, a "just one more minute; just another chapter" kinda book!

1.5 speed

I made it to the end and enjoyed most of the book. But when Savannah rambled on and on and on about her feelings for Hez or vice versa, I couldn't help all my eye rolling and could barely stand to listen. All of the guessing about what the other person MIGHT be thinking and never questioning the other person was ridiculous. During those parts I nearly doubled the speed of narration to get past those sections. The epilogue was interesting. Excellent narration.

So many twists and turns!

Absolutely amazing!! Everything from the performance of the reading of the book to the twists and turns and the bomb at the end. Colleen and Rick have become my new favorites.

Exciting book

This book leaves you on the edge of your seat. At the end, you think everything is going to be fine.
Then you get the final plot twist and you must download the next book or you won’t be able to sleep at night.
